  1. I have been telling everybody about my surgery who will listen for several different reasons... I'm excited and I want to share the excitement of me changing my life for the better, The outpouring of support from my friends and family and coworkers and others has been overwhelming , very few people have shown negative reaction and when they do, I act like I do not care,,,, Since I have shared my story was so many people about doing the weight-loss surgery many people did not know this was even an option especially going to Mexico with great success and are now doing it themselves... I feel like the more I share this with people the more I educate others about the awareness of obesity, controlling it and being able to do something about it and I'm proud of my decision of having the self-esteem & the courage to go forward to make myself a healthier better person !! The only people who have given a negative reaction are the uneducated about the topic and the people who do not have a weight problem so I don't expect either one of those to understand anyway! i feel so bad that people feel they have to hide this or lie about it ....So it is my opinion ...why lie because then you have to cover lies with more lies and he just gets worse ...be honest about who you are and I think people seem to respect me for having the courage to go forth but that's just my opinion and I respect everyone else's!
  2. I found this deal on Body Fortress Protein for those who like Body Fortress or for the budget minded... Thought id share.... http://www.walmart.com/ip/Body-Fortress-5pk-Bundle/14912512
  3. Hey all of you March Sleevers... I just wanted to say "our month has finally come" YEEAAHH... and we can start "really really" getting ready and gearing up for our surgeries coming up this month I want to wish everybody the very best of luck and cannot wait to hear everybody's progress!! I am March 22 with Fernando Garcia in Mexico!! How is everyones preps doing?? Are we nesting yet??
  4. Amazing transformation!! Good job
  5. Hey I will be the week before you, March 22, similar story to yours, so excited!!
  6. Im 3/22 and sooo excited... Looking forward to your updates!! You will do great!!
  7. I am a paramedical aesthetician/laser tech for a plastic surgeon, common problem we see ... ask your dr to prescribe 4% hydraquinone cream, use it like religion 2x a day... Its a powerful skin lightener, hopefully thay will help evenout the skin discoloration... The black heads are potentially from stretched skin pores... Get Cetaphyl AntiBacterial Bar Soap for keeping clean once extracted, its build up of bacterial, sweat and so on in stretched pores
  8. My surgery date is March 22 with Garcia at MiHospital, looking forward to hearing about the "Garcias before me" updates and keeping in touch with all you March 2013 sleevers!!
  9. A or B ....3... October is less expensive for cruises and resorts
  10. Thank you so much for the inspiration!! You look amazing!!
  11. I used www. Kayak.com which let me see all airlines and layover options... My best bet was surprisingly US Air on the day I purchased, Southwest can be inexpensive also if cost is a factor but Kayak gave many choices
  12. So excited for you... Im 1 month away from that same journey... Be safe!!
  13. Im March 22 with Garcia in TJ
  14. Yeeaahh... So excited for you guys.. You know we will be here on pins and needles looking forward to hearing from you and for the low down on your experiences!!
  15. Clermont, Florida... Disney Worlds backdoor
  16. I too was weighing the Garcias drs and after all the reviews, reviewing certifications and experience and research decided on Fernando Garcia thru Ready4achange.com for March 22.
  17. Just bought this Application because my friend recommended the application to me and it looks fantastic I cannot wait to get started!!
  18. There is several drs in TJ who do in house financing which might be a way to go, maybe put up a new thread asking those who have been sleeved in this category
  19. I also encountered this and looking them up and saw all kinds of complaints about them in my search so I just decided to save it up on my own!
  20. Hey guys... Heading to Mexico March 22 to be sleeved with Garcia and understand there is a dentist... Anyone used these services and if so, is it a good/clean place to go, is the work good, is it that much less expensive and what type of things did you have done?! Thanks
